With two weeks to go, our clinic is very busy with patients booking pre-Christmas treatments to look their best for parties and meeting up with family and friends.
It is a busy time and your skin is often the first to betray it if you’re tired and run down after too many long days and late nights. We understand that our clients want to look their best for Christmas and have a few ideas to help your skin look healthier and fresher in the shortest possible time!
Christmas Appointments
Patients wishing to have a skin treatment before Christmas are encouraged to book as soon as possible as it is such a popular time of year. It is also advisable to consider any recovery time that may be required after treatment or to allow it to take effect.
Top Pre-Christmas Treatments
Wrinkle Relaxing Injections
Ever-popular anti-wrinkle injections work to smooth out the lines and wrinkles that appear with fine muscle movements. They are particularly effective on the forehead and for opening the eyes for a more alert look.
Side effects are minimal, but we advise treatment a few days before an event to give the injections time to work.
Dermal Fillers
These classically work by adding volume to the face, restoring a fresher and firmer look to the skin. However, they can also be used more structurally to provide a rejuvenating ‘lift’ which makes the whole face look younger.
Dermal fillers are fairly instant in the volumising. However, as with all injections, there may be some slight swelling for a day or two, so it is best not to have them on the same day as a big event.
Microdermabrasion or Chemical Peels
For a quick boost to the skin, microdermabrasion or a light chemical peel are an excellent choice. These work to exfoliate the skin, sloughing away dead skin cells and also excess buildup of oil, dirt and grime. In addition, the process stimulates cell renewal, so the skin renews itself from within for a longer-lasting effect.
An intensive peel is best avoided as a last minute treatment, but a light peel could be a good choice to make the skin more radiant, glowing and healthy.
What to Choose?
There are many treatment options and we can provide advice on what best suits your requirements. To help you think about this, you may want to consider:
- What are your skin concerns?
- What results are you trying to achieve?
- When do you hope to see a difference?
- What key dates do you need to be ready for?
Our experienced team are always happy to advise – please feel free to get in touch.
All treatments at the Mulberry House Clinic start with a consultation appointment with Dr John Tanqueray. This will fully assess your skin and requirements, providing the best advice on what treatment programme would best suit your needs
